Poetry- Guest post


Meet Andrew Alpin,born and brought up in Kolkata, loves music and to read books on philosophy and occult. His love for mountains brought him to Darjeeling where he stayed for 6 years. Now works as a restaurant manager and a part time web content specialist in Kolkata. He has been writing poetry since the age of 19. Inviting him for a guest post was a great experience. You can reach him at andrewalpin1@gmail.com or get in touch with him through his FB profile https://www.facebook.com/andrew.alpin.5?fref=ts

Can you imagine somebody writing such beautiful verses of poetry in childhood? I was very young when this poem was written.  Read two verses penned by Andrew in 1989 and 1990. 

Wind on the ridge

Wind on the ridge
Blowing strong and free
I hear your mighty voice
Roaring through the trees
Wind on the ridge
You shall not seem to mind
Each time I cross these rocky paths
My spirit I come to find
1989

Pain
Life is weary
And living is full of pain
Like a tired flower all withered
I long for the comfort of rain
1990
